Two Months at a Glance

mommy's favorite part of the morning...
after the 5:30am feeding, we'd go back to bed and snuggle for a couple of hours.

this was the first time i ever left my girl. christopher and i went to red robin for burgers, then to brusters for ice cream. christopher wasn't really ready to call it a night, but we couldn't think of anything to do that wouldn't cause us to spend money, so we went back to pick her up.

a mom should never have to leave her girl, but we figured we should start prepping me for when my maternity leave was  over. i had a hard time thinking about anything other than evey on our date, but that will get better with time. 

snuggling with mipa while mom was away

 

i love those sweet toes - she has my feet!

mipa got gasoline in his eyes at work and had to go to the er. the next morning, we took him to the doctor for a check-up. his eyes looked fine, but we spent the rest of the day resting his eyes and dancing with evey. she loves to dance with her mipa.

love those sweet cheeks

 

nana and flash came to visit

she's so sweet when she cries and it still hasn't gotten old. at first, i felt like i was such a bad mom because i love to snap pictures of her different cries, frowns and pouts. but i was researching baby photography online and it said that their cries won't last forever - take an extra 10 seconds and snap some pics.

now i don't feel quite so bad!

 

she sucks on her thumb, her fingers, our fingers, her fist, and her pacifier.



 

sweet bottom again. i just can't resist.

papa's new favorite game with his evey-monster is "fish-face." he squeezes her cheeks with her hands and says "fish-face" in his high pitched baby voice. when he lets go, she smiles and tries to laugh! it's so adorable!

the pooches need some attention too, so we go on walks.
taking them with the stroller is a lost cause, so i moby her up and off we go!

she's such a happy girl. the smallest things make her smile - and we love making it happen!



she's getting so strong and loves to hold her toys!



 



she's so smart and she knows what she wants. she's gotten in the habit of disliking her diaper... so we let her chill in the swing or bouncy chair in her birthday suit. she loves to be free!



 i'm not sure how we ended up with the sweetest girl in the world, but she was definitley worth the wait! every day gets better and better and even though she may not know what love is yet - i can tell she loves us and i can tell she knows how loved she is.
